For solo musicians running bedroom operations creating convincing drum tracks via MIDI can be a major time consuming pain in the ass! Is paying a drummer a little cash to program your MIDI a worth while investment?

There have been claims that drum samples result in everyone having similar drum sounds. Guns don’t kill people, boring people with drum samples kill people. Ruprect demonstrates the versatility of the Superior Drummer 2.0 engine using 4 different expansion packs and their included MIDI loops.

As you guys probably know, I’m a HUGE fan of Superior Drummer 2.0. I’ve talked about it many, many times. It’s one of two products that I have absolutely no problem fully endorsing as being mega awesome without any reservations.

If you are in need of realistic drum samples (or want an amazing platform for your electronic sounds such in Electronic EZX which we used in the upcoming Toontrack Mixing Wars: Techno contest) I think Superior Drummer 2.0 is THE way to go.

The only thing is, I always thought it was a $300-400 sample set. It appears now that you can snag it for a measly $149! That’s crazy!
